I use two of these, but one is sufficient for grow cabinets: http://www.1000bulbs.com/product.php?product=9135 not only removes all the odor, but provides more light, too ... :smokin:

Cheep, cheep odor solver. Get a couple gallon bucket, put a airstone in it with air pump then poor a mix of pine saul and water in it and just leave it on constantly.

Remember that instead of smelling like pot your room is gonna smell like pine saul constantly, if you're fine with that it works, as I'd imagine for most it wouldnt be a big problem, but you could also consider an Ionizer or ozone generator for a more stealth solution. That being said...I would probably go with the pine saul personally.

Also remember what I am saying is for a quick and cheep salution. I do use a scrubber and vortex inline fan, but I have had smell issues and have had to look for ghetto salutions. This one that I am talking about was not created by me, I don't have that many brain cells left, but none the less can work.

Also, if you have one of those little water fall thinggies castle, fairies you no the little porslan set ups, you can run the pinS threw that to. It is funny I just read about a guy that has a 30 plant set up and he is using it. I don't know if I would go that far, but it should take care of you just fine.

"Pine-Sol" an all-around strongly pine-scented liquid cleanser, pine is used to mask the ammonia, I think ... smells too much like a public restroom to suit me ... yuk ... hospitals love the stuff ... :smokin:

I can tolerate the smell of Pine-Sol on occasion, but I can't imagine living with that smell constantly. That'd get really old really fast, and would probably make food and pot start tasting like crap too. I was in the Army though, and I associate that smell with horrifying days of scrubbing public urinals and bathroom floors. But...ya can't argue too much with cheap if you're broke!

Try spraying MiteX here and there, everything will smell like cloves, and it's organic.

makes your room smell like fresh laundry :)

ive went to walmart and looked at the filter i just never bought them, when i do ill maybe do one sheet of filter and then crumple up the bounty sheet...so you have non smelly, clean air :)

ive also seen order absorbing gels? they are in like a little bucket and i guess they absrob smells or makes them neutral i don tknow
